The running back was asked by the officer who pulled him over if he had marijuana in the car. Bell initially said no, but when asked if he smoked any marijuana recently, Bell said he and the others in the car smoked "about a minute ago."

Bell clarified he and the members of the car "smoked within the last two hours," according to the officer.

The officer then told Bell he would be tested and charged with a DUI for operating a vehicle while high. Bell had no clue he could even get busted for that.

"I didn't know that you could get a DUI for being high," Bell said according to the officer. "I smoked two hours ago. I am not high anymore. I am perfectly fine. Why would I be getting high if I had to get on a plane to make it to my game?"

There's probably a pretty big segment of the population that looks at DUI as "driving drunk" rather than "driving under the influence."
